b. 1.3

c. 1.9

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. The Kj for beta 0.6 is 10.42%

Step by step solution

01

Meaning of Cost of Equity

Cost of equity refers to a return that an investor must expect from the company for his investment, which is the cost for the company.

02

Computation of Kj if the beta is 0.6

Kj=Rf+尾(Km-Rf)=6%+0.6脳(7%)=6%+4.2%=10.42%

03

Computation of Kjif the beta is 1.3

Kj=Rf+尾(Km-Rf)=6%+1.3脳(7%)=6%+9.1%=15.1%

04

Computation of Kjif the beta is 1.9

Kj=Rf+尾(Km-Rf)=6%+1.9脳(7%)=6%+13.3%=19.3%
